There is an urgent need to find alternative therapeutic agents because pathogenic bacteria are becoming more resistant antibiotics. The broad-spectrum antimicrobial qualities of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have gained interest. Plant extract-mediated reduction was utilized in this study produce nanoparticles, giving a sustainable, economical, and environmentally friendly substitute for conventional chemical processes. To verify their formation, surface chemistry, morphology, the synthesized...
Launaea procumbens (Asteraceae) is used as a folk medicine to treat hepatic disorders in Pakistan. The effect of chloroform extract (LPCE) was evaluated against carbon-tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced liver damage rats. To evaluate the hepatoprotective effects LPCE, 36 male Sprague–Dawley rats were equally divided into six groups. Animals group 1 (control) had free access food and water. Group II received 3 ml/kg CCl4 (30% olive oil v/v) via intraperitoneal route twice week for 4 weeks. III ml...
Linezolid (Oxazolidinones) is commonly used against a variety of Gram-positive infections, especially methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). The emerging resistance to linezolid curtail the treatment infections caused by MRSA and other bacteria. Presence cfr gene plays crucial role in resistance.Present study was aimed detect among clinical isolates.The suspected isolates were processed through Kirby Bauer disc diffusion methods for confirmation strains. Phenotypic determined...
Medicinal plants help in improving the human health that is primarily due to bioactive constituents such as flavonoids, alkaloids, saponins, cardiac glycosides and tannins. These compounds play important role minimizing oxidative stress, cancer, impotency, dysfunction microbial inhibition. Euphorbia prostrata (L) is a small prostrate, annual herb found all over the world including Pakistan. This study was designed investigate protective effects of E. prostrata against stress antibacterial...
Seasonal rains in Pakistan result heavy floods across the country, whereby faecal contaminants will be added to water bodies and cause numerous food-borne outbreaks. The present study was aimed determine prevalence of diarrheagenic Escherichia coli (DEC) strains sources.Two hundred samples collected during (2011-2012) were processed for isolation E. (EC) strains. EC further analysed antibiotic susceptibility patterns, pathogroups-specific virulence factors stx1, stx2, stx2c, eae, tir, hlyA,...
Current study was aimed at ecological investigation of floristic composition, characteristicsand biological spectrum district Bannu, KP, Pakistan. In the present study, 193 plant species 154 generabelonging to 54 families were studied during 2013-2014, using frequent field visits in all seasons for plantcollection. 75.13 percent (145/193) belonged dicotyledons whereas, 24.87 (48/193) speciescomes from monocotyledons. Poaceae leading family with 37 species. Based on habitat most plants...
Abstract: Background: Rutin, a polyphenolic flavonoid, possesses antioxidant and hypoglycemic effects. Objective: The present study was conducted to check the effect of rutin on serum reproductive hormonal level sperm concentration in male rat. Methods: 30 rats were equally divided into 3 groups (10 per group). Group I control (untreated), group II given 50 mg/kg bw while III 100 mg/ kg intragastric twice week for four weeks respectively. enzymes (POD, SOD, GSHpx, GST, GSR), glutathione...
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) causing the disease 2019 pandemic (COVID-19) has put millions of people at risk in an increasing number countries, suggesting a serious threat to global public health. The first identification late 2019, strain undergone several changes that have resulted genetically different variations are cause for concern. By comprising Delta, Gamma, Beta, and Alpha variations, each which shown evidence increased virulence, transmissibility, or...
Free radicals alter DNA, resulting in various chronic disorders, including cancer. Herbal therapy has a significant potential to block cancer progression and other diseases. The Tamarix aphylla plays an essential role the modulation of free radicals. Calotropis procera (leaves), tropical medicinal plant, shown protective effects against progression. We have examined antioxidant separate or combined forms plant extracts. demonstrated scavenging activity at concentrations, 100 microgram/ml,...
Many diseases, including cancer and diabetes mellitus, are caused by reactive oxygen species (ROS). Allium sativum (Garlic) contains vitamins A, B, C, as well effective drugs like insulin, alliin, mineral salts, mucilages, allicin, volatile oils. Garlic has antioxidant properties which showed a therapeutic effect on some types. The overall goal of this study was to conduct pharmacological testing assess the combined abilities (cloves) methanolic Tamarix aphylla (leaves) extracts. extract...
Astragalus eremophilus is traditionally used as a potent antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant medicinal plant. In the present study we proposed to assess an allelopathic property of aqueous extract eremophilus. Proposed plant was collected from catchment area University Science Technology Bannu in its growing season. The parts were dried shed, grounded powdered form saturated with de-ionized water prepare crude extract. Promising effects shown by (root stalk) growth control least...
Deaths related to drug errors are common in Pakistan, but these not accurately reported. Since medication management is the main responsibility of nurses, it vital that they have a good understanding high alert error. Patient health care, particularly fortification, exertion and challenge for healthcare professionals around world. The profession pharmacist world-renowned providing medical care patients.
